Have you seen I Am Not A Horse, LadyD? It's a classic of the genre.

YES, Yes, YES, I have seen 'I am not a horse'.

No, no NO, I do not need my tumultuous pulse made any more frantic by videos tonight.

Thank you.

I only asked. I am trying to give up being VJ as I'm tired of being blamed for other people's inability to resist opening links. ::wink::

Meanwhile, for your personal and private Hobbit viewing pleasure

Now I've made that clear, I will return to my original point .

I also have difficulties seeing RA himself in the characters. I know it's him but the characters don't look like him, iyswim. I think he is far better looking and swoonsome in character than he is as himself. Even in the stills of him dressed as the characters but not IN character he is less attractive.

This is a half baked theory that I have been musing over for a few days and an excess of Gizzy is seriously hindering the lucidity of my explanation!

Marvellous. Isn't there a Star Trek Nth Generation character with a similar gizmo?

Ah yes, Geordie Laforge

Wot a waste of Duraglit, mind you.

Aha! I knew that you would know.

::Frets about forthcoming world duraglit shortage::

It's the approaching shortage of starch you need to be worried about, Maud. How ever will you keep MrT looking dapper?

Ah, but the shirts are meant to be floppy and the cravat is not essential.

::kicks 23 assorted discarded cravats under the chaise longoo::

LadyD, this is something we've mused on in the past. Every now and again you see a flash of one chaRActer in another (I remember posting them but can't remember any examples now) but otherwise it's uncanny how they are so different when it is THE SAME MAN Spiro has noted before how you can even tell in a screencap from a DVD extra that he isn't in character. Quite odd.

I do seem to remember spotting Guy in one ofd the bedtime stories screencaps and thereby awaits my first morning when the kids are back at school :)

I htink this is a Cunning Plan of Maud's, LadyD. You just take your shirt off whilst I starch it for you, dearest... oh dear, we have run out! You'd better stay like that for a few hours whilst I try and find some more..."

Are the 23 discarded cravats the ones you removed with your teeth, Maud?

I shall now retire to bed to think lustful thoughts about Gizzy contemplate my theory in order to be a little more eloquent tomorrow.

::quite keen to know which CBeebies story channelled Guy, though::

@ Maud's not-so-cunning-plan. You're rumbled, my dear!

...in order to be a little more eloquent tomorrow

Oh but then we won't recognise you... :o

Oh come on, LadyD. It doesn't take long to watch all five of them in the Bibliotheque and I'm sure the LittlestDs would enjoy it almost as much as you.

Nearly, Twiggy. While Dixon goes to the grocer's in search of starch and a blue bag, I will keep Mr Thornton entertained with a glass of Madeira and a ratafia biscuit.

I am so pleased Gizzy has been coming in for all this extra attention, lately. I hope it's not going to give hm a swollen head, though.

Night night and sweet Gizzy dReAms, LadyD

. Very true, Twigs.

You mean you don't get the Plato out when Dixon is absent, Maud?

::heroically resists wandering over to the Bibliotheque de YT::

MasterD2 does sometimes ask for the Cbeebies stories and, sadly, can not be persuaded to view any alternative storyteller.

::successful brainwashing::

A quick flick through the screencap gallery (needs more serious research later) makes me think it could be:

this one

or this one

Y'know, this is very to admit but I think I almost find him vying for Most Fanciable in these stories... after Lucas, of course. What?! Stop looking at me like that!!

I'm orf too. G'night one and all!

I will keep Mr Thornton entertained with a glass of Madeira and a ratafia biscuit

::Looks back at you::

I didn't want to do this, but you leave me no choice.

Gizzy has completely bumped Harry out of my top two ::fickle::

I do veer wildly between MrT and Gizzy but I would currently rather be dragged up on to Richie and galloped away with than be borne chastely off in a carriage.

I am going through a Guy phase too, LadyD (is it just me or does anybody else dislike the name Gizzy? Maybe it sounds too much like gizzard. Guy is much nicer).

Night night, all.
